A fellow at ICC found an opening against Amateur that, when played at 3 0, would
allow him to win in a few moves.  A queen's pawn game, Amateur would fall to a
quick kside attack.  I've never bothered to add book or position learning, so
this guy played a bunch and won several games.

So I thought, how can I quickly fix this without learning?  I noticed he was
matching one of my seeks, which was 3 0.  I just changed the seek to 3 2.  With
the extra time, Amateur now avoids the trap.  What's funny is the guy hasn't
figured out he can just match me 3 0.

I wonder how many games he'll end up playing. :)
